#1 "Countries are finding clever ways around having to take real action."

It's great fun flying around the world, attending conventions, giving virtuous speeches, and making the all the parties. But when it comes to crippling your economy, well, that's a whole different thing.

Would it be rude to mention that the US, despite not being part of any silly climate treaties, is one of the few countries that has reduced CO2 emissions. Thank you, frackers!

(ignoring for the moment that CO2 appears to have virtually no effect on planetary climate)

#2 "Countries are finding clever ways around having to take real action."
A stopped clock is accurate at least one time per day.

#3 If St. Greta were really serious about fighting climate change, she would go to China and confront the government there.
If she made it out alive, rather than as an involuntary organ donor, she could then walk to India and confront the government there.

#4 She'd find a bewildering welcome and even more bewildering stay here. By the time she left, she'd be declaring, "Everybody must learn from India, how superbly they are conserving the environment !"

No one understands and plays her game like us.

#5 Whoa there squeaky, that's the great money laundering and graft game.

Could end up coming across Jormengandr next yacht jaunt.

But don't worry. Your arkancide will be blamed on an errant ice berg caused by climate change.

#6 Welcome to the real world, Greta. Talking and doing are, always have been, and always will be two very different things.

#7 Until that little freak confronts China I have no interest at all in the alleged dangers of "climate change".

#8 Until that little freak confronts China

I'd settle for watching this little lady confront high school algebra
